The outgoing chief monitor of Sri Lanka's crumbling ceasefire has criticised the EU for banning the Tamil Tiger rebels and said his warnings of a violent "worst case scenario" had come true. Brigadier General Ulf Henricsson wrote a memo to the European Union more than a month before May's ban was imposed warning of a rise in violence and attacks in the capital Colombo if the EU carried out its threat. ighting has surged since December that has left at least 1,500 dead culminating in fierce battles in the northern Jaffna peninsula this month between government forces and the rebels.
